To say we've listened to every release in 2012 would be a lie. We probably haven't even listened to every genre. But, still, we feel lists are important because of discovery, and not because of what we think is best, or what you think is better. And so, with discovery being the reason we do this, we absolutely welcome your comments on Facebook, Twitter, or in the section below this post. Because we know we've missed plenty of great songs, and we would love to hear them.

You can listen to (most) of our 100 Best Songs of 2012 on Spotify here.Or, just scroll below. It's more dramatic that way.
